It is the national training centre for the Elim Pentecostal Churches and is among the foremost Pentecostal Bible Colleges in Europe. The college is a registered charity (No. 251549) and an approved academic partner of the University of Chester, whose validation means students completing Regents programmes receive a University of Chester award.

Postgraduate programmes include the MA in Applied Theology (1 year full-time or 2 years part-time) and the PG Certificate in Applied Theology. A Ministry Foundation Certificate (MFC), validated by Regents/Elim, is also available. Students may study residentially on campus or as context-based students attending the Malvern campus for focused teaching weeks. On-campus accommodation is available in single study bedrooms, most with en-suite facilities, with full catering.
